On wrapped lines, display cursor at the start of the row instead of the end of the previous one

Joost Cassee 14 years ago updated by Jon Skinner 13 years ago 2
Suppose the cursor is in the middle of a long line that is wrapped a couple of times to form five rows. If I press 'home' to move the cursor to the start of the row, then it moves to the end of the previous row. This is logically the same place, but if I now move up, the cursor stays at the end of the row, even when I move to other lines.

I would expect to be able to move to the start of previous lines by pressing 'home' and then 'arrow-up' a couple of times.

Let Goto Anything take focus from Find, replace

Scott Bowers 13 years ago updated by Lorenzo Pisani 13 years ago 2

Currently, it is impossible to open any Goto menu while the find feature has focus. To my knowledge, the control key serves no function while the find pane has focus.  Pressing Control-P, etc should open the Goto bar, but does nothing instead.


Conversely, you can open the find bar while Goto is open, but it leaves the Goto bar open. 


Additionally, using a Goto-specific shortcut will close a current Goto bar, rather than switching to the Goto-specific variation.


I recommend that any opening any Goto, Find or Replace bar would first close any existing Goto, Find/replace bar. Much like the Replace bar closes Find and opens Replace and vice-versa.


Additionally, I recommend that the shortcut commands that open a searching feature (goto, find, replace, etc) not be used to close the feature.  Sometimes collisions between using multiple search features put you in a state where you think you're doing a Find, but you've actually just closed find and are now typing your search into the file you're editing, etc.  Escape is a good universal way of exiting a pane.

Typo on ST3 API documentation

I belive I found a typo in the ST3 API docs:

set_async_timeout(callback, delay)

should be:

set_timeout_async(callback, delay)

Block cursor. The hidden wide_caret setting is not a block, it's an underline.

Opening a folder from the command line should focus on the existing window if that folder is already open in Sublime.

HTML DEcode special characters - there is encode already, but decode will be also useful

There is HTML Encode special characters option available.
Will be good to add also decode to this.

Better Open File / Goto Anything

Markus Haider 13 years ago updated by dawgfoto 11 years ago 4
It would be great, if one could open any file (not only files already opened before) by just writing the path into Goto Anything (ctrl+p). Furthermore, the files in the current directory (given to Goto Anything) should be listed (with less priority then open files). Helpful would also be a tab-completion when going through directories, e.g. when I write "/home/test/D" a tab should complete it to "/home/test/Desktop"

A version for PowerPC Macs running OS X 10.4

Andrew Taylor 12 years ago updated by Paul Bissex 11 years ago 1
Sublime Text 2 is great, it does everything I want from a text editor for programming and nothing more. Every other editor I've used on a Mac has been lacking in one way or another. Any reason you can't make a build for older Macs? They're still solid, reliable machines ideally suited to some text editing.

Display/highlight/indicate changed parts of file in gutter

Steven Lu 12 years ago updated by FichteFoll 12 years ago 4
This is a feature in many IDEs such as Eclipse and Visual Studio, which I believe can be quite useful in a general purpose text editor. 

Along the gutter (next to the line numbers) a colored line is displayed across the lines which have been modified (and unsaved). Often there are multiple levels of this that show different "levels" of modification (unsaved changes, saved but not committed to VCS). 
This is very easy to implement in a basic way by using features already present in the editor (indicators), so this can be done as a plugin also. But it's not quite ideal because we don't want to use a circle (the circle would also conflict with other plugins I have like sublimeclang) we want a space-saving 1 or 2 pixel colored line for this.

Organizing currently open files in folders / groups

Folke Schwinning 11 years ago 0

It would be nice if you could organize the currently open files in folders or group them together in the upper bar.

Sometimes I need to work on several projects, i.e. to get some source code from one project to include in another.

This feature would help you to stay organized and have an overview over all of the projects you are working on.


The feature could look something like this:

Maybe this feature could also be included into the side bar:
